Porsche 2.8 RSR & 914-6 GT Front Oil Cooler

Post by Darren65 »

Faithful and authentic reproduction of the Behr front central oil cooler fitted to the Porsche 2.8 RSR and 914-6 GT....

Image

Image

Manufactured in the UK by one of the worlds leading suppliers of racing radiators, oil coolers and motorsport fabrications, Concept Racing ( https://conceptracing.co.uk ), these are fully functioning motor sport quality coolers, each pressure tested and built to perform at the highest level.

Built to the same dimensions of the original cooler (seen below) with end tanks and brackets cast to match the original Behr cooler perfectly. Complete with the correct oil pressure relief valve, internal spring and ball bearing, captive nuts and finished in the original Alocrom 407 protective coating to give the coolers that period authentic green tinge, I believe these are about as close as you can get to an original NOS item.

Available at GBP £2,500 + Shipping

....super lightweight and weighing only 2.8kg, 0.5kg lighter than the original and likely more efficient....

Many thanks Jon and look forward to catching up when you collect.

We've now sold out of 914-6 GT coolers from the first half of the initial batch fabricated but will have a couple more in a few weeks - please note this is a very limited one-off production run and with a smaller demand for 914-6 most coolers will have brackets welded on for 911's so please do get in touch promptly if you have a need.

As with the 3.0 cooler all bar a few of these are destined for the States.

Many thanks,

A few 2.8 RSR coolers available for immediate delivery although 914-6 GT coolers currently sold out.

There are a few more to be fabricated which will be towards the end of June although this will most certainly be the last batch with no further production planned.

Please be quick, these are recognised by respected experts as the best reproductions ever produced and none of the alternatives I've seen are credible or pretty! :?

Thank thanks :)

Just a few of the awesome cars these coolers are being fitted to :cool: ...

Cutler GT
Image

Meaney GT
Image

Stoddard GT
Image

....we're now sold out of the current batch.

Not knowing how the split of RSR/914 coolers would go we held back the final 8 cores and end tanks which we plan to have fabricated at the beginning of October. Once these are made there will be no more.

At this stage we're undecided on how many we'll allocate to 914-6 GT's but if you think you might have a need now or in the future then please do let me know.

Many thanks,
